OUR LIVES, OUR STORY

From a young age, Jake Isaac only ever wanted to become a musician. Growing up in a minister’s household, he was heavily influenced by his father’s record collection, where he discovered Mozart, gospel and Paul Simon’s ground-breaking Graceland album.

Jake describes his debut album Our Lives as a collection of very honest songs. “Music is a way to articulate emotions and feelings that I just wouldn’t say otherwise.”

“These are songs which I believe everyone can relate to in some way. I have a lot of male friends who like myself find it difficult to express themselves or be vulnerable, and some of the songs explore this subject.”

It’s all in the detail

“I needed to sing what I find it hard to say,” Jake says of Better This Way ashe explains the track’s inspiration and creation – and why the detail MQAreveals is so critical.

If people can listen to my music in the same quality that I listened to it when I was creating it... that's really important to me.
